Home

Charlie Peck recorded half of "Home" by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros on the day he started testosterone treatment. After nine months of treatment, he recorded the other half of the duet. Essentially he is singing to himself, but the duality of the finished product is thought-provoking.

As a sidenote: In the video I refer to myself with my previous name. I do this because I personally feel comfortable with this. Generally never refer to a trans* person with their "dead name".

My way to transition is also just that - My way. There are so many ways to feel comfortable in your own body and no way is more right than the other. Go your own way.
